Highlight
of the yearHaving the privilege of spending nearly nine
months of 2011 traveling around Europe and the United States, I
stumbled upon maybe the greatest place on earth, Budapest. Added to its
greatness, I had the pleasure of being there with Bobbysix himself.2011
in wordsFantastically amazing year for music,
incredibly disappointing year for Hollywood.Prediction
for 2012After 2011 came out with the highest number
of Hollywood sequels ever, (yes, EVER) Hollywood decides to stop making
sequels and instead take a chance on original, independent and
thought-provoking cinema...fingers crossed.
